Prepare the orange-flavored cake according to the package instructions, using the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Bake in a 9x13-inch pan and allow the cake to cool completely after baking.
While the cake cools, prepare the orange pudding. In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange-flavored pudding mix and whole milk until thickened. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Reserve half the whipped cream for the final assembly, and gently fold the remaining half into the chilled pudding to create a light and creamy orange custard layer.
Peel and segment the fresh oranges, removing as much of the pith as possible. Reserve a few whole segments for garnish, and roughly chop the remaining segments.
Cut the cooled orange cake into bite-sized cubes.
In a trifle dish or a large glass bowl, begin layering the trifle. Start with a layer of orange cake cubes on the bottom, followed by a thin spread of orange marmalade. Add a layer of the orange custard, then a layer of chopped orange segments.
Repeat the layers (cake, marmalade, custard, and chopped oranges) until the dish is full, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.
Sprinkle the top layer with orange zest and garnish with the reserved orange segments and mint leaves.
Chill the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
